​Timely Payment of Tuition

For students who initiate and complete the financial aid application process in a timely manner, loan funds will generally be posted to their student account by the beginning of the semester.Refund checks for those students are processed by the end of the first week of the semester.Students who have not paid their tuition and fees by the due date will be subject to a $100 late fee and interest at the rate of one percent (1%) per month on any unpaid balances.

Because of this tuition-payment policy, it is very important for all students to begin the financial aid application process as early as possible each year.

The balance of tuition not covered by financial aid can be paid via cash or check. We do not accept credit cards for tuition payments. Payment plan options are also available through Sallie Mae Tuition Pay. Students can enroll online at tuitionpay.salliemae.com or by phone at 1-800-635-0120.
